User-generated content

Users create the tours you see on Poly and Google doesn’t approve the tours. Before you guide or join a group tour with user-generated content, you’ll see a warning. It says the content is generated by a user and not included in the Google list of available tours.

If you don’t connect your device to the web at least every 30 days, tours you downloaded will expire and are removed from your device. You’ll get a notification to refresh the tour 5 days before it expires. If you don’t refresh the tour, you’ll get another notification 24 hours before the tour expires.

To prevent your tours from expiring:

Connect your device to the web every 30 days to refresh content.

Verify that your device has the correct date and time so content isn't prematurely removed.
